I 11 Talk 24 Hours!’ Says Senator; Boasts of Speaking Feat
WASHINGTON. June 12.—(U.P)— Sen. Huey P. Long. Democrat, Louisiana, kept the United States senate in its longest session of this congress tonight with a single-handed filibuster against the resolution to extend NRA until April 1, 1936.
At 12:30 p.m.—12 hours after he started—Lcng was still defiantly holding at bay a chamber full of tired lawmakers who wanted to quit.
Senator Intervenes
When Huey, talking on every subject he could think of, and uttering repeated threats to continue all night, showed no signs of stopping, Sen. Millard Tydings, Democrat, Maryland, walked past him and whispered something.
“No, sir!” Long shouted. "I had just as soon stay here. Where could you find better company than you have now? It’s only 10:30 o’clock. That’s early. We’ll be here at 10:30 o’clock tomorrow morning.” Report Circulated
A few minutes later reports circulated through the senate that Long's allies had deserted him.
It was said that Sen. Pat McCarran, Democrat. Nevada, and Sen. Elmer Thomas. Democrat, Oklahoma, had urged Long to quit talking and he had refused.
Garner Just Reads
As Long continued his filibuster, Garner, in the chair, read an article in the magazine "Today” about himself. It was entitled “No. 2 Man,” and was headed by a five-column picture of the vice-president in his shirt sleeves.
“You know,” Long said, “some of the senators think they are punishing me tonight. Not at all. Why, I’ve walked for 18 hours, so it’s nothing for me to talk for 18 hours.
‘Planning Needed,’ States Engineer
By Reeve Conover Planning Editor
“As an engineer, I am convinced that as much tiiye should be devoted to planning a project as is spent on constructing it,” said Professor B. M. W'oods at the meeting of the planning Section yesterday morning.
As a member of the state planning board. Dr. Woods outlined the work lying ahead of that body, and used the recently adopted state law to show the scope of that wok. When touching on the fact finding and assembling functions of all planning boards, he referred to advice given by Dr. Campbell, former president of the University of California, when he said, “Get the facts on your side; they work for you 24 hours a day.”
At the afternoon meeting, J. A. Mellen, highway engineer of the Los Angeles County Regional Planning commission, led the group in a discussion of “Transportation Problems.” Land use is the basis of transit needs in Mr. Mellen's opinion, and the correlation of the senices and duties of various types of facilities—railroads, highways, waterways and airways—seems to be an excellent accomplishment which will be found essential in the near future.
At present. Dr. Dodd said, a sur-y is being made to obtain infor-tion of a general economic na-_ in an effort to determine how uch the average family can afford spend for insurance of such a ature.
In the afternoon session. William substituting for Winslow Carle-gave a splendid evaluation of -help movements. r Bell convinced his audience ~t the cooperative is here to stay, that federal subsidization is not correct solution to its problems, 2 such treatments puts it in light ol a direct relief move-ent and definitely breaks down morale and initiative of its bers.

Sinclair Asks Relief Fund For California Self-Help
By Vnit ed Press.
Upton Sinclair, gray-haired ex-Socialist, last night called on President Roosevelt to ante up $170,000,-000 of federal work-relief money for a vast “help yourself” empire for the unemployed in central California.
In a letter to the president, the "end poverty” chieftain outlined plans for a huge industrial and agricultural domain, stretching over an area the size of the state of New Jersey, in which he wants the government to build houses, factories and farms for half a million Jobless.
The project, originally known as the Central Valley Water and Power plan, is laid in the once-fertile San Joaquin valley country, scene of the famous “Wheatland riots” of three decades ago. The valley is being drained off. and fhe entire territory is slowly turning into desert.
Sinclair's plan, one of the mo6t
ambitious he has ever offered, would establish with federal funds a giant water and power project, reclaiming the land under a federal authority similar to the administration’s Tennessee valley “yardstick.”
"We ask the government to buy the land which has been surrendered or sold for taxes; we ask it to exclude speculators by condemning and taking all land which will be made fertile by the new irrigation system, and to set up model large-scale farm cooperatives, using modem machinery and science,” his letter said.
"For the cotton we grow, we want spinning mills and clothing factories. For our cattle, a packing plant, a tannery, a shoe factory. In short, we want a complete agricultural and industrial unit, enabling half a million workers to grow everything that can be grown in our climate, to process and manufacture with the best modem machinery

Gran Chaco War Closes as Peace Pact Is Signed
Twelve-Day Truce Begins As Commission Starts Boundary Fixing
BUENOS AIRES. June 12 — <U.P> —A peace protocol virtually ending the three-year Chaco war between Paraguay and Bolivia was ’ signed at noon today.
The plan provides for a 12-day truce between both armies. Firing will cease at noon, June 14, the two belligerents retaining their present positions.
During the truce period, a neutral military commission will fix the lines separating the two armies in the Chaco. The commission also will supervise and control the :e-curity guarantees, until they are carried out fully and demobilization is effected, as provided in the peace formula.
Our Signers
The protocol was signed ln Government house. Representatives of the United States, Argentina, Brazil Chile. Uruguay, and Peru were present with the Paraguayan and Bolivian delegations and affixed their signatures to the peace document after it had been signed by Luis A. Riart and Tomas Manuel Eiio, foreign ministers of Paraguay and Bolivia, respectively.
U, S. Ambassador Alexander W. Weddell and Hugh Gibson, delegate to the Chaco peace conference and U. S. ambassador to Brazil, signed for the United States.
Crowds Were Joyful
Following the ceremony Riart and Elio thanked the mediators and promised every effort of their two governments to fulfil the provisions of the peace formula and definitely terminate the century-old boundary problem.
Reports from Asuncion. Paraguay, and La Paz. Bolivia, announced that immediately upon receipt of advices the truce had been signed, huge crowds assembled in the streets to express joy. Patriotic hymns were sung by paraling thousands in both countries while church bells tolled and sirens shrieked.

Appraisals Are Speech Subject For L,A* Realtor
By H. B. Lathrop
Acting Right of Way Editor
The right of way and land section enjoyed the most ambitious day in their program this far, yesterday when addressed by a number of authorities.
The morning hour was amply filled by George Schmutz, Los Angeles appraiser and realtor, whose instructive views on appraisals of real estate and easements were well received by the class.
The afternoon session was started by W. B. McKesson of the Los Angeles county counsel’s office, who lectured on the procedure of instituting suits for the acquisition of land through eminent domain proceedings.
This interesting talk was followed by A. W. Nordstrom, deputy city attorney. City of Los Angeles, whose subject was the presentation of evidence in condemnation suits. “Judicial evidence is the means by which the court can ascertain the truth,” he declared.
Superior Judge Leon Yankwich ended the day’s program and his fiery talk proved to be so valuable and interesting to the land men that, by unanimous consent and request. the judge’s talk was held over for a half hour, not terminating until after 4 p.m. Judge Yankwich spoke on “Expert Testimony in Condemnation Suits.”
‘The idea of an expert is contrary to the democratic idea,” he declared, “yet there is a great field for the expert in the realm of value.” He further stated that “the exercise of the power of eminent domain is the highest power of the state.”
Judge Yankwich, because of his experience, is one of the four superior court judges in Los Angeles who handle suits for eminent domain proceedings.

Roosevelt Returns From Absence; Plans Message
Canada Expects Rush
TORONTO, Ont.—(UJ?) — Canada anticipates a tourist traffic this summer which will esual that of 1928, when $309,000,000 was spent by visitors during the year.
WASHINGTON, June 12 —(IIP)— President Roosevelt came back to 4he capital tonight after a five-day absence and announced that he will send a special message to congress next week. He refused, however, to reveal the subject.
Mr. Roosevelt said that he had already drafted part of the text of the message.
“Will it deal with taxes?” he was asked.
The president waved aside the question.
The presence of Joseph A. Choate, head of the federal alcohol control administration, aboard the special train that brough Mr. Roosevelt back from West Point, N. Y.. gave rise to speculation that the communication would relate to liquor law enforcement.
Under the recent supreme court decision invalidating NRA, the FACA will pass out of existence unless extended, because of the fact that its work involved code enforcement and regulation.
Choate boarded the Roosevelt train when it made a brief operat-
ing stop at Weehawken, N.J.
Earlier in the day the president addressed the West Point cadets at their graduation exercises, speaking of the need of permanent peace in the world, based on mutual understanding and regard.
On the trip southward, the president also conferred at length with Postmaster-General James A. Farley
The president said he would leave Washington Saturday afternoon for Annapolis where the yacht Sequoia will carry him to the Jefferson Island club for a week-end of fishing.
On June 20 the president hopes to leave for New London, Conn., to attend the Yale-Hanard boat races. From New London he plans to motor to Hyde Park, returning to Washington the following Sunday.
The president propounded his philosophy to the cadet corps and several thousand visitors who were crowded under a blistering sun on the grounds of the famous military academy on the Hudson. His words were broadcast to the nation.
Study, Thought to Sewage Disposal Necessary-Wolman
By Pehr Olson Water Supply Editor
To have a clean, drinkable water, which is the greatest need for the health and happiness of our people, much thought and study must be put to the disposal of sewage and w'aste.
In order to illustrate the importance of this need. Abel Wolman stated in his morning lecture that in the entire United States, only 20 per cent of the urban districts are equipped for sewage disposal, and of this percentage the state of Maryland urban district is 57 per cent sewered.
Mr. Wolman also stated that in many instances these districts are sewered or treatment plants are constructed only upon court order, or when necessary to abate a nuisance. This in itself shows how easily the drinking water might become polluted, and the ertreme necessity and importance of the control of this condition make it essential that we look for federal aid.
H. G. Smith, engineer of sewer design, city of Los Angeles, gave an interesting talk on the “Design of Terminal Island Plant.” one of the large sewage disposal plants of Los Angeles.
A. P. Banta. chemist engineer, Los Angeles county, next conducted some interesting experiments with chemical precipitations in the Los Angeles county sanitation district, and was followed by a discussion on ‘Sludge Disposal” by John F. Skinner, consulting engineer, Los Angeles.
